Jumping into international deals, Burna Boy is 100% correct - Tiwa savage

Singer Tiwa savage has given a nod to Burna Boy's warning that Nigerian musicians should be wary of jumping into international deals.
Days past, there has been controversy trailing the internet over what the "Gbona" crooner said in regards to Nigerian musicians embracing international deals, some on a par with  him over his observation, and some saying that it is an act of jealousy, and probably because he has not been opportuned to grab such deals.
Tiwa savage who is a beneficiary of such deal, and who recently signed a bogus deal with the entertainment giant Universal Music Group, during an interview with BellaNaija, stated that “I think it’s important for artists to be 100% sure and aware of what they’re getting themselves into, especially when it comes to contracts. .

 Burna is 1000% correct. People took it out of context, maybe. It’s a great advice to any artist: make sure you see your lawyers and do your personal research. It took me a year to conclude this deal.

 It took that long for a reason. It took a year to convince them that I don’t want this and I want that and this is the reason why. They understood. I feel blessed in the position I’m in. .

 I have an amazing deal with UMG and I agree with Burna that while we’re pushing Africa to the World, we need to be careful that we don’t lose ourselves. I think that’s what he’s trying to say.” The music diva said.

Reasons why female youth corp members leave Abuja after their service year

To so many yet to serve Youth corp members who have not visited Abuja before, FCT is to them, the city which will help to shape their life, if they are by chance, posted to Abuja, for a compulsory 1 year National youth service.  Abuja, which was projected to contain maximum of 4 million people, was divided into four phases, and 16 cadastral zones, in the original city master plan, which was designed by the city builders in 1979.  Unlike the city of Lagos which was the Nigerian capital before December 12,1991, when the capital was moved to Aso Rock, by the then military general, Ibrahim Badamosun Babangida, Abuja is a planned city. And it is not hard to see. Although, Abuja is the kind of place where you can by chance meet any of the who is who of the country, and of course the chances of meeting any of the 109 Senators, or the 360 House of Representatives members, or important members of the diplomatic community are always high, if you live in the city's center, or y...
